We had hair cuts shortly after 12 months and should have done it earlier. My guys have been blessed with the curse of very very very thick hair. Jared's hair grows like a weed. We have actually had 3 haircuts already and they need them again but we are growing out their hair for Halloween.

aiden had a few strays snipped around 9m, but not counting that his first actual cut was at 11m at the shop and he had to get regular cuts every month after that - i shaved it in june & have already had to cut it twice since then out of his eyes, off ears - it isn't thick, but grows so stinkin fast which sucks because he HATES it being cut!

I think I cut Gabe's hair when he was about 14 months. but you've seen gabe's hair. lol it was getting out of control, so i had to cut it! It's so cute now that it's short. and it's easy for me to take care of now. :) I think my DH wants it to be longer, but i told him he's not the one that has to deal with combing his hair! lol :) I've cut it three times already, it grows really fast too!

Hailey's haircut was a bang trim, just a few weeks ago......done as her mommy admitted defeat in the war of the hair accessories. Her hair was getting pretty long, and I did my best to adorn her with barretts or hair ties to keep it out of her eyes....but OH NO, this one refused to wear anything in her hair, if I got it in, it was pulled out within 30 minutes, max, and then it turned to having a fit if I even attempted to come at her with some sort of clip. I finally said, in desperation...."Hailey, you have to wear this or I have to cut your hair, do you want that?" An excited nod of the head (yes) and I knew it was all over. Luckily Grandma is a hair stylist so she got to do the honors......and well, she does look pretty darn cute......you win this one my sweet.......Wish I could add the picture, but I'm having technical difficulities :)

Hee hee-Ryan and I are still fighting that battle-every morning. But now hers is so long I can get pigtails in-she cant pull out the rubberbands (however, screams bloody murder when I pull them out at night). Prior to her first day of new daycare class, I couldnt for the the life of me do anything with her hair-bows came right out! Then I picked her up on her first day to find two cute as hell pigtails on top of her head....amazed, I asked who did it and the sweet day care lady said Ryan just sat there quietly...REALLY? Hmmm...so its me then!? From then on I have to put her hair up or it is out of control...Im not sure I'm doing it because it is cute-or to avoid the fit she will throw if I try to cut it! :)

To answer poor Kristins question-I have only had to cut Ryans bangs-just around her eyes a few times....but she is a girl-so I think it is different-I think she was like 12 months for the first time-and every other month since.

I'm doing ok. Work has been horrible lately and Alex has was sick with pneumonia and restrictive airway disease last week. :( He is doing slightly better now and I just hope things get better quickly. I'm just all around tired (and yet, here I sit, on the computer at 10pm).

We went to New Orleans last weekend for a wedding, and it was awesome to get away together (the first time I have left Alex over night). I think we both needed the time to reconnect.

I did try the rubber bands....sigh, alas, she got those out too! She has pretty fine hair, so I was always afraid to put them on TOO tight, so anyway....she's a funny one, pretty good little girl, but she will get her mind set to something and you simply can not change it! A strong will is good......I'm still in charge...but this battle I gave up on! LOL As long as it is not in her eyes, I'm happy with that. The cute thing was after she got the trim, she stared in the mirror just smiling at herself like "Wow, I'm kinda cute!" Totally cracked me up.

Ryan is getting so big! Wow, they do grow up so fast, don't they? I will have to get some new pictures of Hailey added here soon.

In totally unrelated news......I'm going to be a SAHM as of next Thursday! It's the most awesome feeling ever, I've constantly struggled with working while having Hailey at daycare, and now I don't have to anymore. I'm over the moon excited! :)

Ethan hair is super thin, a few weeks after his first B-Day we took him to get a haircut because the hair was starting to get long. Now 6 months later we are going to take him in to get his second haircut :)
